You guuuuysss. I need opinions on Buffy & Faith's S8 arc. I'm not a fan of it but I feel like there is some interesting stuff mixed in there.
It just doesn't feel like a natural progression from where they were in S7. Yes, some of these issues were still present because with all the world savage they never really talked about what they did to each other. And I do like this side of them explored, it just could have been done a million times better.
I don't see how they went from Faith admitting to Buffy that she was always jealous of her, but after walking in her shoes and leading the potentials/everyone, and feeling how lonely it was, she suddenly understood Buffy on a new level.
And Faith being the last person to leave the hellmouth when it was destructing and yelling "Buffy! Come one!" (the only person to try and get her to come with them or even think of her) to that^.
Buffy was uber hostile to her as well.
